as bill clinton might say, it's just arithmetic. in fact, this situation of a divided government has only two possible outcomes. action based upon good faith compromise, or no action, resulting from political deadlock. in my opinion this latter, no action based upon deadlock, is simply unacceptable, to the people of maine and the people of the united states. we must find a way to act because many of the problems before us, the debt and deficit is probably the best example, have a time fuse. the longer we avoid acting the worse they get. in this case no decision is itself a decision. and it is almost undoubtedly the wrong decision. the challenges before us are too great and the stakes are too high to allow partisan differences to keep us from finding common ground even on the most difficult issues. and i hope that in a small way, in a small way, i may be able to acts as a bridge between the parties, an honest broker, to help nudge us towards solutions. i talked with more than a dozen senators of both parties in the past three days. a
